Huge win for car owners! All TSBs to be made public.
The Center for Auto Safety just made the NHTSA (US Government) make public the full text of all TSBs from now on. They are the same organization that has petitioned the NHTSA & filed lawsuits to protect car owners over exploding gas tanks & other major safety issues.
Whenever you drive in your car, you are safer thanks in part to a lot of work over the years by this small but very effective consumer advocacy group.

I hear a strange, almost slipping sound sometimes when I take off, or turn a corner, almost like I'm not getting traction. It doesn't happen all the time and never when I take it in..is this normal or sometime I should worry about?

I own a 2007 Toyota Tundra - 4X4. Several times I noticed that it had moved from where I parked it. It had moved from the spot that I had placed it and rolled backwards, down a fairly steep grade, a distance of around 20 feet. I tried several times to replicate the incident and discovered the following: When parked on a hill without the parking brake engaged the transmission would not "lock" in park while the truck was in 2 wheel drive. This condition can be replicated only when the truck is placed into park immediately after having the anti skid (traction control) respond to a slippery condition. The problem does not occur when the truck is placed into 4 wheel drive. The problem also does not occur if the automated anti skid response does not activate itself. The rolling does not always begin immediately. I have not yet tried to get the same responses while backing the truck up the hill in reverse. I reported this to the local Toyota dealer in Warren, Ohio on Tuesday, December 22, 2009. I am very concerned that this condition may cause serious injury or death to anyone who may find themselves behind the vehicle when it begins to roll.
